David Hine and Shaky Kane Dig in for Bulletproof Coffin: Giant! Cease to Exist – Resurrecting the Acclaimed Odyssey of Surreal Superheroes at Oni Press
Oni Press has announced the long-awaited return of comics’ insidiously enthralling and potently psycho-active indie comics masterwork in Bulletproof Coffin: Giant! Cease to Exist – a brand-new, 72-page dose of surreal superheroes and addictive ideas reuniting original series creators David Hine and Shaky Kane in comic shops and book stores everywhere in January 2027! Continuing the semi-ongoing series of pseduo-psychedelic adventures that began with 2011’s landmark, self-titled Bullerproof Coffin series at Image Comics, Giant! Cease to Exist will mark the first new installment in Hine and Kane’s radical deconstruction of comics’ Silver Age sense of self since 2021… and mark the series’ official debut at Oni Press, where the publisher will begin collecting the complete Bullerproof Coffin saga to date beginning in 2028.
Inside the pages of the hyper-fictional Golden Nugget Comics imprint, a war is being waged with weapons of technological control by the Sons of Technarchy, a cabal of hyper-intelligent, all-powerful trillionaires who treat entire realities as disposable playthings. Standing in their way is an unlikely last line of defense: The brave but bizarre heroes known as Eye-We-I, Scarlet Spook, Ramona—Queen of the Stone Age, Red Wraith, Coffin Fly, the Shield of Justice, and more! But as the battle for existence rages, a mind-bending meta-twist unfolds—Hine and Kane themselves are drawn into the chaos, forced to confront their own demons as creators on the brink. Cosmic, chaotic, and wildly imaginative, Bulletproof Coffin: Giant! is a genre-smashing spectacle that blurs the line between fiction and reality.
Hine and Kane first introduced readers to the “Ficto-Verse” in 2011’s The Bulletproof Coffin, the initial six-issue miniseries which followed comic book collector Steve Neyman as he uncovers a strange connection between real life and obscure, pulp-style vintage comics. The second story arc expanding the “Ficto-Verse” appeared in 2012’s The Bulletproof Coffin: Disinterred and was followed by the 2017 one-shot Bulletproof Coffin: The Thousand Yard Stare, a meta-sequel in which Hine and Kane first became characters in their own psychedelic universe. Bulletproof Coffin: Giant! Cease to Exist will be the first new story in the Bulletproof Coffin world since two short stories in 2021’s Kane & Abel one-shot, as well as the first to be published by Oni Press.
Oni Press will release David Hine and Shaky Kane’s Bulletproof Coffin: Giant! Cease to Exist on January 12, 2027 – featuring a standard cover by Kane, alongside limited-edition variants by Rául Allen and Alex Diotto.
